Childhood Memories From The 90's

A few days ago my Mum found some old photos of me as a child and it got me thinking about all of the things I loved when I was younger, if you were a child in the 90's then some of this stuff might bring back a few memories for you too.

Obviously as a child sweets were a big part of my life, especially retro sweets like rhubarb and custards, I used to go to our little local shop and buy them by the quarter as a treat and they were so good. Unfortunately the shop closed a long time ago and sweets like that are hard to hold of now but you can get them and a great selection of other sweets from AquarterOf.

The Barbie Dream House was one of my favourite toys as a child, I had loads of Barbie dolls and several houses but the Dream House was always my favourite. Me and my sister would play for hours with them, dressing them up in different outfits and taking them on little adventures around the house, we even had a camper van which was so cool and bright pink!

A stand out TV show for me as a kid was Saved By The Bell, I absolutely loved it, I so wanted to be Kelly Kapowski because she was gorgeous and I loved Zack and his huge mobile phone. Mr Belding was hilarious and I loved how Screech always pined after Lisa, it was such a great show, if you were a 90's child then you definitely watched it.

Lastly is the Nintendo Game Boy which was surgically attached to my hands for most of the early 90's. I loved Tetris and Super Mario Brothers and could sit for hours playing on it until the batteries ran out.
